About all, and 0.3 announcement
An Update on the Situation — And a Small Announcement
So, given the current circumstances, I think it’s time to make a post about what’s going on with Itch.io.
For reasons that remain unclear, Itch has removed all NSFW games from its search index. I’m not sure how long this situation will last, but in the meantime, I wanted to share a small announcement regarding version 0.3 of my project.
Version 0.3 — What’s New
For those who don’t know — 0.3 is already finished. Tomorrow, I plan to release it in closed access, with the public release date listed below.
As for the update itself — all the major issues that were present before, including problems with the story, plot consistency, character relationships, render quality, and animations — I’ve done my best to fix them.
This version represents a significant leap in quality compared to everything that came before.
Also, about 0.2 — turns out the story was plagued by a terrible translation. I have no idea what I was on when I uploaded that script without double-checking it, but... well, here we are. No wonder many of you had no idea what was actually going on.
Anyway — moving on.
Additional Changes
-
Gallery Overhaul — The gallery has been redesigned and now looks much better overall.
-
UI Improvements — The main menu UI has been revamped, especially for PC players. You can now navigate it using your keyboard! It might seem like a small change, but it’s surprisingly convenient.
That’s all for now.
Oh, and the release date:
Deathwatch Captain – July 25
Interrogator Tier – July 31
Guardsman Tier – August 6
Acolyte Tier – August 11
Scribe Tier – August 15
Public Release – August 18
That’s it.
I won’t say goodbye — just see you soon.
We’ll keep an eye on how the situation develops.

Statement from itch.io regarding the NSFW-ban: https://itch.io/updates/update-on-nsfw-content
"For reasons that remain unclear, Itch has removed all NSFW games from its search index."
This is most likely due to a new EU and UK law that will restrict access to adult content until users are verified.
that isnt the case, its "Collective Shout" pressuring payment companies like visa and mastercard into pulling out of itch and steam unless adult content is removed. For the record, Collective Shout has been abusing their influence for about ten years since they launched a campaign against GTA5 and Detroit: Become Human for their depictions of sex workers and child abuse respectfully
Oh, I've heard about this thing too. But it's strange to read that a monopoly like Visa cares about feminists and make pressure on itch and Steam cause of them.
120+ 3D AVN style games can be found in my collection here:

Godspeed as always fam and we will be here waiting for that release 💛 💚 💙
good luck man
I'm glad I followed you beforehand. those poor souls will never be able to stumble upon peak on their own now. Itch.io is becoming a bit of a disappointment lately.
From what I understand, it should only effect games that can only be played by purchasing them. Games that're totally free or have a free public version are supposed to be just fine.
itch will 100% die off without adult games, so unless they want to go the way of tumblr then this is likely temporary until they figure things out.
